SHADOWBORNE | THUNDERBOLTS | ROBERT REYNOLDS
Rani Barnes, the daughter of Bucky Barnes, was raised in the shadows of Hydra-trained to hunt, obey, and survive. Now 19 and rescued from that life, she's thrown into a quiet existence she doesn't understand, living with a father still grieving the loss of his best friend and trying-failing-to be something like a dad.
Haunted by her past and hollowed by the silence of peacetime, Rani feels trapped in a luxurious house that feels more like a cage.
When a mysterious woman named Valentina Allegra de Fontaine approaches Rani on a rainy night, offering purpose, danger, and payment-everything Rani was born to crave-the temptation becomes impossible to resist. After one final argument with her father, she walks away, card in hand, and makes the call.
This is the story of a girl bred for war, trying to make sense of freedom, and a father desperate to save her before the shadows claim her again.
